I guess the next thing to try is:
How to Reinstall or Repair IE6 and OE6: http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=318378
Although written for WinXP, it works for all Windows operating systems 98 or newer.
If you are using WinXP/SP2, and it was not already on your computer from the factory, you will have to remove SP2 first.

Thanks Bruce and PA Bear I did all that you suggested but no it has not worked.
I have no major adware or spyware problems and when I create a new identity
I still can't solve either of the problems that I mentioned.
What else can I do to get rid of these 2 problems? The messages seem intact.
It looks like an application issue.
Have you seen this problem before?

Your current Identity may be damaged, especially if its the default Main

(File>Identities>Add new identity). Assuming all is well, import messages
from the old Identity before deleting it (File>Identities>Manage
Identities).
OE Caveats:
Don't use Inbox or Sent Items to archive messages. Move them to local folders created for this purpose.
Empty Deleted Items folder daily.
Disable Background Compacting [N/A in SP2] and frequently perform a manual
compact of all OE folders while "working offline". More at
http://www.insideoe.com/files/maintain.htm.
Your anti-virus application's email scanning feature can also cause corruption. Disable it. It provides no additional protection. -- ~Robear Dyer (PA Bear) MS MVP-Windows (IE/OE) & Security
